Resizing digital images is must if you want to publish them online or want to email them to your friends. If you have a couple of images, you are fine but what if you want to send more than 10 photographs? Resizing each one will take ages & no sooner you will get bored too. Leave resizing, what if you need to alter file names, contrast, sharpness, format etc of the image? What if I tell you, the above can be done in a few minutes & that too with just a click? Yes, that’s true, I am not joking. Read on.

Digital images can be resized & converted automatically by a process described as “Batch Conversion”. Batch means a group of images. In batch conversion the image manipulation software accepts a dozen of images as input & then processes them automatically as per the options set by the user without user’s intervention. It’s just a one click process & is indispensable for those who need to work with large number of images viz Photographers, Graphic designers etc.

There are many utilities & software’s which can be used to perform batch operations on your digital images but I recommend “Irfanview”. Irfanview is a free image manipulation software cum Image viewer which performs a varied functions & that too in a really efficient way. Upon launching Irfanview, hit B to open the Batch Operation window. The window has a small browser to locate your images. Browse to your images & then select the ones you want & then click Add. On the right side, you can set the output folder for the processed images. You can also set various options here which are self explanatory. Click advanced to set advanced parameters for batch operations which include Brightness, Contrast, Resizing options, auto-optimise, aspect ratio etc. Once you’re satisfied with the options, hit Start Batch & sit back as Irfanview does the boring job for you. It’s as simple as that!
